Ahórkate

Piperrak's song 'Ahórkate' is a raw and unfiltered commentary on self-destructive behavior and societal expectations. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a life consumed by substance abuse, with references to alcohol, drugs, and the physical toll they take on the body. The opening lines describe a cycle of drunkenness and hangovers, leading to severe health issues like cirrhosis and intestinal infections. This sets the stage for a narrative that delves into the consequences of a hedonistic lifestyle.

The song also touches on the use of speed (a type of amphetamine) and its damaging effects, particularly on the nasal passages. Despite these severe consequences, the protagonist continues to live recklessly, refusing to conform to societal norms. This defiance is highlighted in the lines that criticize those who live their lives as if they are in a 'waiting room,' passively awaiting death for a 'decent burial.' The protagonist, in contrast, chooses to live in the moment, albeit in a self-destructive manner.

The chorus, which repeatedly urges the listener to 'ahórkate' (hang yourself), serves as a darkly ironic solution to the protagonist's problems. It suggests that the only way to escape the cycle of addiction and societal pressure is through self-destruction. This stark message is further emphasized by the mention of a 75-year mortgage, symbolizing the crushing weight of financial and social obligations. Piperrak uses this extreme imagery to critique the pressures and expectations placed on individuals, ultimately questioning the value of a life lived under such constraints.
